Approval notice is a sheet of paper saying your GC is approved.
Checking on line status of green card.
I entered the USA on DV program and I am waiting for the welcome letter and the green card.
When you check the online status at www.uscis.gov website, do you need the welcome notice or can you check with the A #. I wanted to check from time to time if they have updated my case.

You would use your A# (Alien Number) to check on your status. You can also call the number mentioned in the welcome notice to check on the status. This method could be more accurate than checking it online.

Checking the status on line without a receipt number
In www.uscis.gov website it says you need your receipt number,not your A# to check the status. Can you please be more clear how to check the status with the A#,on the website,or provide a link to check the status. I entered the USA to activate the green card based on dv program,and I am currently out of USA studying abroad (i applied also for reentry permit which is pending).
